Hey...at least I'm not the one using an adjustable end wrench. Get with the program, MR. DCB...
...just make sure the zip-ties are evenly spaced on it.

I always install my props with a torque wrench so I just use the same torque wrench to take the old one off. A small block of soft wood can be used to stop the prop from rotating so you can turn the nut.
I prefer decent SnapOn gear to the plastic prop wrenches. Of course, I don't generally boat very far from my tool box.

What are you torqueing your props to? I always torque to 55 ft-lbs.
A prop that can take extended surfacing, ought to be able to take being backed into a spruce block. :confused:

Snap On makes one that works much better than that Craftsman crap. I mean it's gotta for the price difference right? :D :D :D
